@PlacidPenguin Which would most likely be by @f00l who wants to be the axe murderer (above). But as long as it is AFTER I get laid, I am good with that.
@2many2no - The rich zombie who actually has a heart of gold but moved here right before senior year and is having a hard time adjusting even though he’s cooler than the “cool kids” (but doesn’t give a shit about that kind of stuff) and gets the bookish girl who removes her glasses and is totally hot.
The adult who is portrayed as a villain, yet when you re-watch the movie later in life, you realize they were actually the one person who cared, and they were trying to make these kids lives better, if the punk kids and their crap sack parents would just listen.
The kid who moves in next door to a karate master that teaches him how to defeat foes with only a handful of moves and then gives him an awesome, classic car to drive around in. Plus the fact that I could win the first karate tournament I ever enter despite not knowing any rules or etiquette and that my winning move was an illegal kick to the head. (In all honesty though, I love this movie and still watch it at least once a year.)
It would be That Movie where the teens go to some abandoned house/farm/asylum, then think it’s a brilliant idea to break up and search the place individually. Then, one at a time, they fall prey to Something that leaves them missing/dead/eviscerated/zombified/headless. In my movie, I would be the Something.
I was already the new kid who couldn’t adjust, so I’d want to be the rich kid because long term, things are going to work out just fine for that little shit.
@Moose Been there, done that. Moved from one of the highest rated suburban schools in the state to a Philadelphia public school after 9th grade. Far away from all the friends I grew up with and into a school with 825 kids in my graduating class as opposed to the 100 or so in my old school. Talk about not adjusting…
@ACraigL GWU is an alma mater of mine, not familiar with the HS. @cinoclav, I had friends in both Bustleton AND Upper Chi, though. Good people in both areas.
@cinoclav I can definitely understand that. I had a core group of friends, but even then it was a challenge on many days. Race riots, drugs, fighting were the norm, along with a regular dose of bad element and slackers.
But we survived, and are probably doing better than most that went there.
The cool gramma.
The high school teacher who just doesn’t give a fuck anymore.
@nogoodwithnames That’s what I was going to put. Helps that it’s also my day job.
An extra that just watches all the moronic drama and shakes his head in disbelief of how stupid kids are.
the crazy inventor who can travel through time.
The axe murderer or chainsaw murderer.
The one who gets laid.
@mfladd
To rest?
@PlacidPenguin Which would most likely be by @f00l who wants to be the axe murderer (above). But as long as it is AFTER I get laid, I am good with that.
@mfladd
Don’t forget that @f00l will be gone from Texas this week.
@mfladd @PlacidPenguin
The straight A captain of the football team with Ray-Ban glasses that don’t have prescription lenses.
I don’t know, Lance Kerwin maybe?
@mossygreen You want to sell timeshares in Hawaii?
@therealjrn Now that you mention it…
The goth girl from The Breakfast Club, but not a girl
Anything but a zombie…
Unless I can be the hot zombie that gets the girl.

@RiotDemon - that movie looks a little TOO MUCH like high school - no one is interested in brains!
@aetris it was cute. I enjoyed it when I watched it years ago.
The one who starts the slow clap.
The character they thought was dead, but has come back from the grave to commit darkly humorous murder.
The screenwriter.
The adult who is portrayed as a villain, yet when you re-watch the movie later in life, you realize they were actually the one person who cared, and they were trying to make these kids lives better, if the punk kids and their crap sack parents would just listen.
Carl, the janitor.

@tnhillbillygal It’s a lot easier to win a fight if you don’t bother following any rules!
/giphy pocket sand
Next time around, I want to be the villain. They get to have all the fun, except at the end. So most of the movie they have all the fun.
The director, or an executive producer.

I’m already bookish and wear glasses. I’d love to turn hot when my glasses come off.
I’m also a metal head… So I’m sure once the glasses come off I’ll be put into a dress and heels.
@RiotDemon
No glasses…
@2many2no yep. That’s totally me without glasses in that teen movie!
I want my two dollars.
@elimanningface
I don’t really care as long as I get Molly Ringwald in the end.
@cinoclav Is she up for that? You might have to date her for a while first.
@ACraigL She’s a redhead. 'Nuf said.
The nerd, of course. Because he will be the billionaire and all the other’s boss in 5 years.

Long Duck Dong.
The one that starts the applause with a slow clap.
@ACraigL A sarcastic slow clap, or one of genuine admiration?
@PocketBrain Oh the real one, for sure. When the nerd stands up to the jerk bully in the cafeteria or whatever. That clap.
I was already the new kid who couldn’t adjust, so I’d want to be the rich kid because long term, things are going to work out just fine for that little shit.
@Moose I can’t believe that answer wasn’t more popular.

@cinoclav - Lower Merion to Germantown?
@aetris Garnet Valley to George Washington
@aetris @cinoclav My Alma Mater (GW)
@ACraigL GWU is an alma mater of mine, not familiar with the HS. @cinoclav, I had friends in both Bustleton AND Upper Chi, though. Good people in both areas.
@ACraigL I truly hated that school.
@aetris It’s funny though, I live closer to Lower Merion now. I’m in Haverford Twsp.
@cinoclav - Radnor for me - I knew a lot of LMers too!
@cinoclav I can definitely understand that. I had a core group of friends, but even then it was a challenge on many days. Race riots, drugs, fighting were the norm, along with a regular dose of bad element and slackers.

@ACraigL Exxept for Kevin Hart. That bastard.
@aetris Radnor now? Damnit, did we miss the selfie entry?
@cinoclav But you’re SO much taller (probably).
@cinoclav - It’ll be in the reveal thread!
